Parish Volunteers – Garda Vetting and Safeguarding
Sincere thanks to all the co-ordinators for their help in distributing Garda Vetting forms to date. Over 100 volunteers have submitted Garda Vetting forms since January and this is very much appreciated.
Volunteers -please watch out for the email invitation from the Garda National Vetting Bureau inviting you to complete the application and please do so as soon as possible. Safeguarding Information Sessions (approx. 1.5 hours) will be held in the Mount Merrion Community Centre on 12th and 26th March at 8.00pm. These will be addressed by a member of the Archdiocese Child Safeguarding and Protection Team. All volunteers will be asked to attend one of these sessions whether or not you are currently renewing.
